Guys who get a lot of extra base hits are power hitters. Even if some of those are products of speed.
All hail Jean Segura: Power Hitter Extraordinaire!

I guess Albert Pujols is no longer a power hitter though...

Do you think he was asking you a question?
What is there to admit to if there isn't a question?
I made a statement. You confirmed it. No question needed to be asked.

And then again in this discussion. You either agree that exit velocity correlates to hits and you're being a jackass. Or you don't agree and you're an idiot.
why can't he be a jackass and and idiot? why does it have to be either/or?

It's pretty common knowledge that Jose Altuve and Mookie Betts are more powerful than Josh Donaldson and Mark Trumbo.

You fuckknobs will argue about nothing when there's nothing to argue. Threadkillers.
tec doesn't even disagree that a hard hit ball is more likely to become a hit. He just likes to interact with me. Because he loves me.
It takes two.

I didn't confirm it by not confirming it. Duh.

I wouldn't call it "love". More like, amusement.

Depending on your point of view, here MIGHT be some relevant data for you dipwads to misinterpret and/or misuse

Home Run Tracker has the exit velocity, launch angle, and distances for every home run hit this year.

Does it have it for balls hit that would have been homeruns to LF but were hit to CF? No? Don't give a ****.

Actually, if you bothered to look, it actually shows a number for ballparks that the ball would actually be a homer. For example, Hanley benefits from playing in Fenway with a lot of homers that wouldn't be homers anywhere else.

If we were trying to figure out who was the best HR hitters, I think I'd go HR/PA. But you don't always get a homer when you smoke one. But hitting a ball 110 MPH is pretty damn powerful. Which was what the discussion centered on.
